Markdown editor, preview & share
Draft Markdown notes with a live preview, then publish a short link that recipients can read as rendered Markdown. Optional passwords encrypt the source before it leaves your browser.
Safe rendering
Preview and view modes parse Markdown with a local marked build and sanitize HTML with DOMPurify before anything is inserted into the page. Remote scripts and dangerous tags are stripped so shared notes stay readable without turning into an XSS vector.
Good fits
- Meeting notes and checklists you only need for a few hours
- README-style snippets for teammates
- Formatted incident updates with headings and lists
Markdown tool
Markdown
Numeric codes 1–10000 recycle and may overwrite older pastes; always set a password
Link is too long for a QR code — shorten the content and try again
Link is long; some chat apps may truncate it
Short-link service unavailable; fell back to a long link
Does PastePad support GitHub-flavored Markdown?
Yes — GFM features such as tables and fenced code blocks are enabled in the local renderer.
Can readers copy the Markdown source?
Yes. The view page exposes a copy action for the original Markdown text, not the rendered HTML.
Are images from the internet loaded?
Remote images are stripped during sanitization to keep the page self-contained under a strict Content Security Policy.
How do I open Markdown mode from the home tool?
Visit this page or open /?mode=md on the home editor.
